Food Handling Certificate

Good food starts with safe hands. Build practical food-safety knowledge relevant to entry-level opportunities in cafés, kitchens, catering and food retail.

Build an understanding of hygienic food handling and the everyday practices that help prevent contamination and foodborne illness. Confirm the specific course and recognition needed for your role and food-business sector before enrolling. ## Career opportunities Bring safe habits to your first food-industry role—or strengthen the experience you already have. Food-handling knowledge is relevant to opportunities such as kitchen hand, café assistant, catering assistant, food-service attendant and food retail assistant. It can also provide a foundation for further hospitality training. Each employer determines the experience and credentials needed, and food-handler training alone does not qualify you as a Food Safety Supervisor. ## Who this course is for People preparing, handling or serving food in hospitality, catering and retail settings, including food-service staff and people starting work in a food business. ## Topics and learning focus - Personal hygiene and safe food-handling practices. - Recognising contamination risks and preventing cross-contamination. - Safe food storage, preparation and temperature control. - Cleaning, sanitising and reporting food-safety concerns. - Following workplace food-safety procedures. ## Entry requirements and eligibility Training requirements vary with the work performed, the food business and state or territory rules.
